The Freedom card is very practical and definitely pays to use within your budget. The Discover card takes a little more effort to get the value. I forgot to purchase something last month and missed a 1000 points. . . kind of a pain, but if you can work the details, a hunnert bucks is a hunnert bucks!

We always wait until we get to the $200 mark to get our $250 check. We should actually hit that this month or next, just in time to get another $250 in our 2007 Roth's. I checked out the Discover card with the miles. It sounds like a really good deal for the first year (1000 points/month). I hate to open cards I know I'll want to cancel after an introductory offer, though. I'll have to mention it to the hubby and see what he thinks.
